We consider the numerical solution of quadratic eigenproblems with spectra
that exhibit Hamiltonian symmetry. We propose to solve such problems
by applying a Krylov-Schur-type method based on the symplectic Lanczos
process to a structured linearization of the quadratic matrix polynomial. In
order to compute interior eigenvalues, we propose several shift-and-invert
operators with Hamiltonian structure. Our approach is tested for several
examples from structural analysis and gyroscopic systems.
